            1. Coarse-grain or fine-grain buffer SVM pointers 
            used by a kernel which are not passed as a 
            kernel arguments must be specified using 
            <code class="function">clSetKernelExecInfo</code> with 
            <code class="constant">CL_KERNEL_EXEC_INFO_SVM_PTRS</code>. 
            For example, if SVM buffer A contains a pointer to 
            another SVM buffer B, and the kernel dereferences 
            that pointer, then a pointer to B must either 
            be passed as an argument in the call to that 
            kernel or it must be made available to the kernel 
            using <code class="function">clSetKernelExecInfo</code>. 
            For example, we might pass extra SVM pointers as follows:
        </p>
        <p>
</p>
        <div class="literallayout">
          <p>
            <code class="code"><br />
clSetKernelExecInfo(kernel,<br />
     CL_KERNEL_EXEC_INFO_SVM_PTRS,<br />
     num_ptrs * sizeof(void *),<br />
     extra_svm_ptr_list);<br />
</code>
          </p>
        </div>
        <p>
        </p>
        <p>
            Here <code class="code">num_ptrs</code> specifies the number 
            of additional SVM pointers while 
            <code class="code">extra_svm_ptr_list</code> specifies a 
            pointer to memory containing those SVM pointers.
        </p>
        <p>
            When calling <code class="function">clSetKernelExecInfo</code> with 
            <code class="constant">CL_KERNEL_EXEC_INFO_SVM_PTRS</code> to specify 
            pointers to non-argument SVM buffers as extra arguments 
            to a kernel, each of these pointers can 
            be the SVM pointer returned by 
            <a class="citerefentry" href="clSVMAlloc.html"><span class="citerefentry"><span class="refentrytitle">clSVMAlloc</span></span></a> 
            or can be a pointer + offset into the SVM region.
            It is sufficient to provide one pointer for each SVM buffer used.
        </p>
        <p>
            2. <code class="constant">CL_KERNEL_EXEC_INFO_SVM_FINE_GRAIN_SYSTEM</code> 
            is used to indicate whether SVM 
            pointers used by a kernel will refer to system allocations or not.
        </p>
        <p>
            <code class="constant">CL_KERNEL_EXEC_INFO_SVM_FINE_GRAIN_SYSTEM</code> = 
            <code class="constant">CL_FALSE</code> indicates that the 
            OpenCL implementation may assume that system pointers 
            are not passed as kernel arguments 
            and are not stored inside SVM allocations 
            passed as kernel arguments. 
        </p>
        <p>
            <code class="constant">CL_KERNEL_EXEC_INFO_SVM_FINE_GRAIN_SYSTEM</code> = 
            <code class="constant">CL_TRUE</code> indicates that the OpenCL 
            implementation must assume that system pointers might 
            be passed as kernel arguments and/or 
            stored inside SVM allocations passed as kernel arguments. 
            In this case, if the device to which 
            the kernel is enqueued does not support system SVM pointers, 
            <a class="citerefentry" href="clEnqueueNDRangeKernel.html"><span class="citerefentry"><span class="refentrytitle">clEnqueueNDRangeKernel</span></span></a> will 
            return a <span class="errorname">CL_INVALID_OPERATION</span> error. 
            If none of the devices in the context 
            associated with kernel support fine-grain 
            system SVM allocations, <code class="function">clSetKernelExecInfo</code> 
            will return a <span class="errorname">CL_INVALID_OPERATION</span> error.
        </p>
        <p>
            If <code class="function">clSetKernelExecInfo</code> has not been called 
            with a value for 
            <code class="constant">CL_KERNEL_EXEC_INFO_SVM_FINE_GRAIN_SYSTEM</code>
            the default value is used for this kernel attribute. 
            The defaule value depends on whether the device on which 
            the kernel is enqueued supports fine-grain system SVM 
            allocations. If so, the default value used is 
            <code class="constant">CL_TRUE</code> (system pointers might 
            be passed); otherwise, the default is <code class="constant">CL_FALSE</code>.
        </p>

        <h2>Errors</h2>
